The mighty bonsai tree. Small in stature, these trees are a lot of work to create and maintain. The end result, like most art, is pleasing to some and a springboard for others. Flickr user lorigoldberg used this bonsai at the arboretum to create a stunningly beautiful picture with great use of depth of field.

With DCist Exposed just announced, I hope the rest of you will get cracking on taking beautiful, artistic images from around our fair city and posting the best ones to the Exposed group on Flickr.
